Di Indonesia, proses belajar mengajar masih menggunakan bahasa
Indonesia untuk berkomunikasi setiap hari meskipun di kelas bahasa Inggris. Para
siswa dan guru masih bergantung dengan bahasa pertamanya yaitu bahasa
Indonesia. Cara ini juga digunakan SMK Taman siswa Kudus, guru dan siswa
menggunakan bahasa Indonesia untuk berkomunikasi di kelas bahasa Inggris.
Sedangkan, mereka harus memaksimalkan penggunaan bahasa Inggris di kelas
bahasa Inggris agar siswa dapat belajar bahasa Inggirs dengan cepat. Oleh karena
itu, penulis ingin mengetahui dan mendeskripsikan “persepsi siswa dan guru
tentang penggunaan bahasa Indonesia di kelas bahasa Inggris sebagai bahasa
asing pada guru dan siswa kelas sebelas di SMK Taman siswa Kudus”
Tujuan dari penelitian ini ada untuk mendeskripsikan bagaimana persepsi

guru dan siswa tentang penggunaan bahasa Indonesia di kelas bahasa Inggris pada
guru dan siswa kelas sebelas SMK Taman siswa kudus
Metode penelitian menggunakan deskriptif kualitatif. Penulis menganalisis
dan mendeskripsikan persepsi siswa dan guna tentang penggunaan bahasa
Indonesia di kelas bahasa Inggris. Penulis menggunakan kuesioner untuk
mengumpulkan data.
Hasil dari penelitian menunjukan bahwa siswa lebih menyukai
penggunaan bahasa Indonesia untuk menerjemahkan kata baru dan memahami
materi bahasa Inggris dalam proses pembelajaran bahasa Inggris. Siswa juga
termotivasi dan nyaman untuk menyampaikan ide jika mereka menggunakan
bahasa Indonesia. Semua guru di SMK Taman siswa tidak menyukai penggunaan
bahasa Indonesia di kelas bahasa Inggris. Akan tetapi beberapa guru
menggunakan bahasa Indonesia untuk membantu siswa dalam menerjemahkan
kata-kata baru dan memahami materi bahasaInggris.
Dari hasil diatas, penulis memberikan saran (1) untuk siswa mereka dapat
menggunakan bahasa Indoensia dalam proses belajar mengajar tapi meraka harus
memaksimalkan penggunaan dan mempraktekkan bahasa Inggris untuk
memperkaya kosa kata mereka. (2) Untuk guru, mereka dapat menggunakan
bahasa Inggris dalam proses belajar mengajak bahasa Inggris jika siswa mereka
dapat mengerti materi Bahasa Inggris dengan baik. Jika ada beberapa siswa yang

belum memahami materi, guru harus menerangkan kembali menggunakan bahasa
Inggris yang lebih mudah atau menerangkan kembali menggunakan bahasa
Indonesia. Karena keberhasilan dalam proses pembelajaran tergantung pada
pemahaman siswa terhadap materi yang di berikan.

Commonly in Indonesia, teaching and learning process is still used by
bahasa Indonesia to communicate daily although in English class. Students and
teachers also still depend on their first language (bahasa Indonesia). In SMK
Taman siswa Kudus which students and teachers still used bahasa Indonesia to

communicate in English class. In other hand, they should maximize the use of
English in English class in order to make students can learn English quickly.
